From your description I will suggest that a new jointing chamber is being built. Possibly just an enlargement of what was previously available. I don't suppose you can recall if a joint-box lid was present at that location? Is the hole in the pavement/footpath or the roadway?
On the footpath; actually I posted a pic on forum of a smaller hole some years back, at the time fibre was being introduced, that was pretty well in same location. Can't say as to joint box now!

Thank you. I suspect that it just to give some more room by replacing an existing joint-box with a newer, larger version.

Who knows, perhaps it is to create sufficient underground space for a G.9700/G.9701 (a.k.a. G.Fast) node?  :-\
